The construction area is 229,000 square meters (including 61,000 square meters of underground construction area). There are 80,800 auditoriums divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. The stands are disconnected on the north side to facilitate heat dissipation in the venue and allow spectators to enjoy the scenery of the Qiantang River. The exterior design concept draws on the concepts of silk texture and dynamic Qiantang River water. The exterior is a steel structure with 28 large petals and 27 small petals. On November 28, 2013, the steel structure was officially closed.

The first floor and the underground floor are equipped with sports competition rooms, Hangzhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection Center, Hangzhou Mass Cultural Activity Center and the new Chinese Print Museum. There is a circular platform on the second floor, which is connected to the second-floor platform of the tennis center. International track and field and football competitions can be held. The stadium will be open to the public free of charge.
